Car Stickers

Car Sticker

Hurrah! Scottish Episcopal Car Stickers. At last! We have cried in the wilderness (and in the Information and Communications Board), “How long, O Lord, how long?”

Our prayers have been heard. Note that the sticker contains a subliminal message designed to make people believe that if that actually encounter the SEC then they will be welcome therein. Clever huh?

You would almost think we had a mission strategy.

    I hope your pic gets picked up by “Inspires”, although the tie is somewhat uninspirational! We can all now be labelled as Piskies, in the same sort of style as the bishops were on the Listening Day!

    Actually, I thought of a young Edwin Morgan en route to a wine bar…

    Now, where is that wine bar where the young Edwin Morgan is about to hold court…

    The ‘welcomes you’ has a long history, and right now is a sign of solidarity with Episcopalian across the pond. I’ve always enjoyed the deep similarity in our pub-signs. In the States you find them at the town line so that as you drive along, you get a double message at each boundary: one of which tells you where you are (‘Durham town line’) and the other tells you where you should go (‘The Episcopal Church welcomes you. — (shield) — St Mark’s, South Main Street.)

    I agree 100% with Tom Allen’s kids about the fish sign. It means give the vehicle a wide berth, and when I see it I usually automatically think the words “oh no, there’s that bloody fish!”.

    Posted with no apologies to any drivers on this august forum who display said piscine. What’s life if you can’t stereotype people! 😉

    Oh and by the way Kelvin, I’m sure I saw a tie shaped gap cut from the flock wallpaper of the Koh-i-Noor Indian restaurant recently that looks suspiciously familiar now that I’ve seen your photo!

    “The Scottish Episcopal Church Welcomes Bikers”

    Excellent suggestion Layclark. I’ll make sure you get the first.

    That tie does seem to sort the men out from the boys, doesn’t it?

    For over 30 years, since Pat McBryde & I returned from New York with a bumper sticker “PRAY THE ROSARY”, I’ve wanted the longer bumper sticker: “EPISCOPALIANS HAVE MORE FUN”. Where can we get them made?
